I had septorhinoplasty a week ago to remove a hump and the cast is comming off tommarrow, although my surgeon said that he was not going to alter the bottom of my nose i.e the tip and nostril etc... as there was nothing wrong with them, when i look in the mirror the nostrils are wider and lifted making the nose look piggy. the whole nose looks much smaller. I am upset as i did not want him to change the bottom of my nose,or make it smaller, my smile looks wierd a bit stretched and evil?
